8 Using a Quick Check 800 Verifier

The Quick Check Series 800 Bar Code Verifier is a high performance, professional tool for verifying the readability and standards compliance of printed bar codes in non-contact mode. The Quick Check 800 Verifier units use a handheld linear imaging bar code reader for simple, convenient aim and shoot operation. The Series 800 verifiers are enhanced versions of Hand Held Products’ Series 600 verifiers and are designed to not only provide the user with all the features of the Series 600 models, but also allow the ease of use of a non- contact device for certain verification tasks.

This chapter details where the operation of a Series 800 verifier differs from a Series 600 unit.

Using the Quick Check 800 Verifier with a QC3800V Linear Imager

Only the QC3800V can be used as the non-contact input device with a Series 800 unit. The QC3800V should not be used with

WARNING any other decoder or terminal.

General Operation

Scanning is initiated by depressing the trigger on the QC3800V after the Quick Check 800 Verifier has been turned on. When the unit starts scanning, it emits a single beep.

If the unit cannot decode a bar code after a trigger pull, it emits four beeps and returns to the main display.

After a successful decode, with a result that passes the minimum acceptable grade set point, the unit emits three beeps (one short, two long).

A decode that fails to receive a grade above the minimum requirement set causes the unit to emit five beeps (one short, one long, three short).

The optimum reading orientation for the QC3800V is 6 inches (152.4 mm) with an angle of incidence of 15° from perpendicular. At this orientation, the system performance approximates an average circular aperture size of .006 to .008 inches (.152 to .203 mm). Extreme variations from this orientation may affect the accuracy of some parameter results.

Battery life of the Quick Check 800 Verifier with the QC3800V attached will be shorter than when using the QC Mouse Wand or Pen Wand. To extend battery charge life, use the unit with the charger connected.
